I WANT TO BUY HIGH...

...buy when the dividend yield is high, I mean! I think a yield of 3.0% to 3.5% on the S&P 500 is a good entry point. Not all of the yield increase will have to come from falling stock prices, though. It could be a combination of falling prices and rising dividends. In other words, we could easily take another 3 to 5 years before we get there.

Instead of dividend yield, some people talk about "shareholder yield", which is the sum of the dividend yield and the rate at which stocks are being repurchased (AND retired).

Does anybody have any other ideas?
